A senior official censured the Netherlands' "unconstructive" decision to expel two Iranian Embassy staff, adding that the country reserves the right to reciprocate. 
The Foreign Ministry in Tehran at the weekend summoned the Dutch ambassador to protest the "unfriendly" move, the ministry spokesman Bahram Qasemi said in a statement. He did not say when the meeting with the envoy took place.
